Best Answer

To win a tiebreak in tennis you must win a game up to 7 points, win by 2. The first point is served by the player who served first in the set. Then the next 2 points are served up by the opponent. Then the tennis players will continue to serve 2 each until one player wins. Players switch sides of the tennis court everytime 6 points have been played.

How is tennis different from soccer football and baceball?

tennis is a terrific sport in which the strongest oponent wins. when you are down 6-3 5-0 and 40-0 you can still win the match. ive seen this happen many times and ive eaven experienced it. it was the third set and tiebreak. i was loosing 6-4(tiebreak) and i won the match 8-6(tiebreak). tennis is different from soccer, or basketball. for example when the score is 8-0 against you is soccer and 20 seconds on the clock its IMPOSSIBLE for you to win but in tennis when you are donw 6-0 , 5-0 , 40-0 you still have a chance to win. this is why tennis is such a wonderfull sport


What is a set in a match of tennis?

A set in a tennis match consists of games. A game is won by winning 4 points going from, 15, 30, 40 to game. If the score is 40-40, then a player must win 2 points in a row to win the game. Once a player wins a game, it is scored 1-0. This is called the set score, to win a set the player must win 6 games but also must win by two. If the score is 5-5, the player can only win by getting 7-5 or in a tiebreak. A tiebreak occurs when the score is 6-6, then they play to win 7 points. Also you must win the tiebreak by two points, once this is achieved then the winner of the tiebreak wins the set 7 to 6.
